Part 1 introduces the game of Go to anyone who is curious about it. Parts 2 and 3 add details for people who plan to take up the game.
This tutorial series started out as the in-game tutorials for a Go club in the virtual world of Second Life. Since other people found them helpful, though, they were “genericized” for general use. Hope you enjoy them!
